People and Stakeholders Practice Question

Question

A practitioner wants to reduce risk before proceeding for the PMP Project Management Professional involving cost baseline in People and Stakeholders. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 7)

Answer choices

1. A. Use the most complex option even when a simpler compliant action directly solves the problem.
2. B. Apply a rule from a different domain even though the exam objective is different.
3. C. The best answer is to select the response that protects project value, uses appropriate tailoring, engages stakeholders, and follows ethical project management practice for the cost baseline scenario.
4. D. Choose the option that sounds familiar even if it does not fit the scenario.

Correct Answer

C. The best answer is to select the response that protects project value, uses appropriate tailoring, engages stakeholders, and follows ethical project management practice for the cost baseline scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is C because cost baseline is tested by asking candidates to select the response that protects project value, uses appropriate tailoring, engages stakeholders, and follows ethical project management practice. The distractors reflect common exam mistakes: ignoring context, using informal shortcuts, skipping verification, or applying a rule from the wrong domain.
